Well this isn't just for new users, this is just for any user that constantly spams and you see him/her/it on every post. New users that spam just to get their posts up and get more known on the site really annoy me, I report them if they post pointless topics and constant spam of course but it's still annoying seeing them everywhere! I feel like if they're trying to get more known and doing it by spamming, I feel like their getting disliked for it but still do it, I'm probably the only person that thinks that. I think there should be a certain time that you have to wait to start a new topic, like after 5 minutes you can post again just to stop spam a little less.

Well you're pretty new, and this is pretty pointless so I'd say you're one of them in this case?

Just keep doing as you say you do and report them when they are spamming. They will slowly disappear from the site and you won't have to see them running a mucus around the site.

But, just because someone posts a lot doesn't mean that it is spam automatically.

You could post 10,000 a day and as long as all those posts made sense and were on topic, you would never see a warning.

I have over 300+ posts since the beginning of June but I don't consider myself by any means a spammer. I am just very active around the community. I am usually on here for a good chunk of my day as I don't have a job yet. But I agree that some members are spammers by just restating the OP's opinion or by saying "I totally agree 20020202" These people are the ones that annoy me.

I understand what you are saying, I see pointless or off topic replies all the time and just like someone mentioned, people do it to increase their post count.
Not much more than can be done other than reporting them.
